CGI

  • This people who talk about it they are in the animations.
    •   They draw the picture first, then animate it and put it in the movie and use voices.
    •     They use pixar in every animated film they use,so to show that its  the original. 

    •  They showed 25 pixar movies because it been running for 25 years, so they allow to make it more.
    •  The cartoons are based on the people who do the voice in it.
    •   Computer animation or CGI animation is the process used for generating animated images by using computer graphics. The more general term computer-generated imagery encompasses both static scenes and dynamic images,while computer animation only refers to moving images. Modern computer animation usually uses 3D computer and graphics, although 2D computer graphics are still used for stylistic, low bandwidth, and faster real-time renderings. Sometimes the target of the animation is the computer itself, but sometimes the target is another medium,such as film.
      Computer animation is essentially a digital successor to the stop motion techniques used in traditional animation  with 3D models and frame-by-frame animation of 2D illustrations. Computer generated animations are more controllable than other more physically based processes, such as constructing miniature for effects shots or hiring extras for crowd scenes, and because it allows the creation of images that would not be feasible using any other technology. It can also allow a single graphic artist to produce such content without the use of actors, expensive set pieces, or props.

Claymation

Clay animation or claymation is one of many forms of stop motion animation.each animated piece, either character or backround, is deformable-made of a malleable substance,ussually plasticine clay.all traditional animation is produced in a similar fashion, whether done through cel animation or stopmition

Stop Motion 
Stop Motion is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on it own. The object is moved in small increament photographed frames,crating the illution of movement when the series of frames is played ad a contininuous sequence. Dolls with movable joints or clay figures are often used in stop motion for their ease of repositioning. Stop motion animation using plasticine is callled clay animation or clay-mation.
Stop Motion animation has a long history in film. It was often used to show objects moving as if by magic. Stop motion is often confused with the time lapse technique,where still photographs of a live surrounding are taken at regular intervals and continuous film. Time lapse is a twchnique whereby the frequency at which film frames are captured is much lower than that used to view the sequence. When played at normal speed.

Drawn on film-cel animation-painting on film

a Cel,short for celluloid,is a transparent sheet on which objects are dawn or painted for traditional,hand-draw  animation.actual celluloid was used during the first half of 20th century,but since it was flammable and dimensionally unstable it was largely replaced by cellulose acetate.with the advent of computer assisted animation production,the use of cels has been practically abandoned in major productions.Disney studios stopped using cels in 1990 when computer animation production system replaced this element in their animation process.

Generally,the characters are drawn on cals and laid over a static background drawing.this reduces of times an image has to redrawn and enables studios to slip up the the production process to different specialises teams.using the lines way to animation has made it possible to produce films much more cost-effectively.the invention technique is generally attributed to Earl Hurd, who patented process in 1914.

Techniques
There are two basic methods to produce animation directly on on film. The things he did is use blank film artist can draw.

Rostoscoping isan animation technique in which animators trace over footage.The technique was inveneted  by Max fleischer whiles he used it in his series he started araound 1917.
Fleischer used rotoscoping in a number of his later carttons,most notably thE Cab Calloway dance routine in three betty boop cartoon from 1930s,he has animated all sort different things that was animated by Gulliver by the end of 1939.

Ralph Bakshi used the technique quite extensively in his animated movies Wizzardsin 1977 and alson he made all other different one in different years.Bakshi first turned to rotoscoping because he was refused by 20th century fox for a $50,000 budget increase to finish Wizards,and thus had to resort to the rotoscope technique to finish the battle sequences.

Kinetoscope
Praxinospcopes
The praxinoscope, invented in 1877 by the Frenchman, Emile Reynaud is a precursor of the moving pictures. Here a band of pictures, each slightly different from its neighbor, is placed inside a rotating drum, quite similar to arrangement of pictures in the zoetrope. In 1889 Reynaud developed the theatre an improved version capable of projecting images on the screen from a longer roll of pictures.This allowed him to show animated cartoon. a Magic mirror a sixteen-sided 



Kinetoscope
The Kinetoscope is an early motion picture exhibition device. The Kinetoscope was not a movie projector but introduced the basic approach that would become the standard for all cinematic projection before the advent of video.

Phenakistoscope
In 1832,Belgian physicist Joseph Plateauand his sons introduced the phenakistoscope.it was also invented independently in the same year by Simon von Stampfer of Vienna, Austria, who called his invention a stroboscope. Faraday had invented a device he called micheal faraday's and Peter Mark Roget. Micheal has invented a divice named by his name. That means that the disc where spinning apart from each other. After a bit they made a toy called phenakistoscope.

How did it work:
The Phenakistoscope use the persistence of vision principle to create an illution of motion. The Phenakiscope consisted of two discs mounted on the same axis. one disc has a slot around it and the other one has a drawing. whose pair of discs in an opposite directions.a Phenakistoscope spin together in the same direction.When viewed in a mirror threw the first disc's slot's the pictures on the second disc,will appear to move.

Zoetrope
The zoetrope was invented in 1834 in England by William Horner. He called it the daedalum. It didn’t become popular until the 1860s, when it was patented by makers in both England and America. The America developer, William F. Lincoin, named his toy zoetrope which means wheel of life.

The Zoetrope worked on the same principles as the Phenakistoscope,but the pictures was drawn. The drum was mounted on a spindle that it could be spun and viewers looking through the slits would see the cartoon picture moving.

Kinematoscope
The Kinematoscope was patented in 1861 a protean development in the history of cinema. The invention aimed to present the illusion of motion the patient was filled by Coleman Sellers of Pholadelphia, Pennsylvania.
